Why anyone would bother wearing masks, distancing, closing down businesses or getting a vaccination for coughs and sniffles - I just can’t fathom.

Worst sickness i've ever experienced in my life. Bad fever lasting days. Chills, headaches and misery that just would not stop. Thought I was gonna die. For a solid week I was sick, and I could feel it creeping down from my nose into my windpipe. I was very worried about what was going to happen when it reached my lungs.

I know four people that died from it. Took me a week to get out of bed, and two more weeks to resume normal behavior. Left me with brain fog that lingers and has lingered for over a year.

Clearly some people are more sensitive to this virus than you are.

That’s a fair point, and I’m very sorry you and others had that experience.

However, my puzzlement over the way people reacted to Covid was not directed at the 3-5 percent who got really ill from it - I was talking about the 96-97% who experienced cold like symptoms and yet allowed their lives to be turned upside down.

I got are really sick, then of course, take the necessary precautions and treatments.

In my opinion, the whole world went mad and brainlessly complied with draconian one-size-fits-all measures that were completely inappropriate for the vast majority of people.

No different than forcing everybody to use the wrong pronouns to appease some tiny fraction of the population suffering from gender dysphoria.

Or forcing flood regions to ration water because people in Southern California are worried about it.
